When and
How to Bypass
Your Water
Conditioner

Normally, all water except outside lines passes through the water conditioner. There are times when
the water conditioner should be bypassed, using the push-button Cul-Flo-Valv
bypass valve. You should bypass:
1.
If lines to outside faucets do not bypass the water conditioner, and you do not want to waste soft
water on lawn sprinkling or other outside uses.
2.
If you are going away on vacation and want to save salt by not having the unit recharge while
you're away.
